[TehThomas] - ICT SMT DivergencesIntroduction
SMT Divergences is a cutting-edge trading tool designed for traders who utilize Smart Money Techniques (SMT), a core concept in the Inner Circle Trader (ICT) methodology. This indicator is specifically built to detect SMT divergences by comparing price action across multiple correlated assets. It helps traders identify institutional activity, liquidity grabs, and inefficiencies in the market, offering valuable insights for high-probability trade setups.
Smart Money Techniques revolve around the idea that institutional traders and large market participants leave behind footprints in the form of price divergences. By analyzing multiple asset pairs simultaneously, this indicator helps traders pinpoint areas where one market structure contradicts another, revealing potential trade opportunities before the majority of retail traders notice them.
What is SMT Divergence?
Smart Money Divergence (SMT) occurs when correlated assets or markets behave differently in key areas of interest. These divergences often indicate market inefficiencies caused by liquidity grabs or institutional order flow. There are two main types of SMT divergences:
1. Bearish SMT Divergence (Smart Money Distribution) 🔴
Occurs when:
One asset makes a higher high, while another correlated asset makes a lower high.
This signals underlying weakness in the price action of the first asset.
Institutions may be offloading positions, preparing for a downward move.
📉 Example: If GBP/USD makes a higher high, but EUR/USD makes a lower high, it indicates potential weakness in GBP/USD and a possible short opportunity.
2. Bullish SMT Divergence (Smart Money Accumulation) 🔵
Occurs when:
One asset makes a lower low, while another correlated asset makes a higher low.
This suggests strength and potential accumulation by institutional traders.
Smart Money may be positioning for a bullish reversal.
📈 Example: If NASDAQ (US100) makes a lower low, but S&P 500 (US500) makes a higher low, it could indicate bullish strength in the stock market, suggesting a possible long trade.
How This Indicator Works
The SMT Divergences automatically identifies and plots SMT divergences on your chart, allowing you to spot hidden market imbalances at a glance.
🔍 Key Features
✅ Compare Up to 4 Assets Simultaneously – Select up to four correlated pairs to compare against the main charted asset.
✅ Automatic Detection of SMT Divergences – The script finds divergences in swing highs and swing lows and visually marks them on the chart.
✅ Customizable Line Styles & Colors – Adjust the appearance of the divergence lines and labels to suit your trading style.
✅ Smart Labeling System – Displays which asset pairs are diverging, making it easy to analyze market conditions.
✅ Works Across Multiple Markets – Use for Forex, Indices, Crypto, and Commodities, giving traders flexibility in different asset classes.
✅ Designed for ICT Traders – Aligns perfectly with other ICT concepts such as Liquidity Zones, Order Blocks, and Fair Value Gaps (FVGs).
🛠 Indicator Settings & Customization
The indicator provides various settings to tailor it to your trading preferences:
Pivot Lookback Length: Adjusts how many bars the indicator looks back to determine swing highs/lows.
Symbol Selection: Choose up to four additional assets to compare against your main trading pair.
Divergence Line Colors: Customize the color of bearish (red) and bullish (blue) divergences for better visibility.
Line Styles: Choose between solid, dotted, or dashed lines to highlight divergences in your preferred way.
Label Customization: Modify text color and display preferences for a clean and informative chart layout.
How to Use This Indicator in Your Trading Strategy
This indicator is best used in combination with other ICT concepts to improve confluence and increase trade accuracy. Here’s how you can integrate it into your trading strategy:
🔹 Step 1: Identify SMT Divergences
Wait for bullish or bearish SMT divergences to appear on your chart.
Check if the divergence aligns with key liquidity zones, fair value gaps (FVGs), or order blocks.
🔹 Step 2: Confirm Institutional Activity
Look for liquidity sweeps (stop hunts) before a potential reversal.
If a bearish SMT divergence forms near a major resistance level, it may signal Smart Money selling.
If a bullish SMT divergence forms near a support zone, it could indicate accumulation.
🔹 Step 3: Enter a Trade with Confluence
Combine SMT divergences with market structure shifts to time entries.
Use additional ICT tools like Premium & Discount Arrays, Volume Profile, and Market Maker Models for confirmation.
Set stop-losses above liquidity zones and aim for high-risk reward ratios.
🔹 Step 4: Manage Risk & Take Profits
Always use proper risk management, keeping an eye on liquidity grabs and market sentiment.
Consider taking partial profits at key structural points and letting the rest of the trade run.
Why This Indicator is a Game-Changer for ICT Traders
Traditional retail traders often fail to spot Smart Money footprints, which is why many struggle with false breakouts and liquidity traps. The - ICT SMT Divergences indicator eliminates this problem by providing a clear, visual representation of SMT divergences, allowing traders to track institutional movements in real-time.
🔹 Save Time – No need to manually compare charts; the script does the work for you.
🔹 Improve Accuracy – Get high-probability trade setups by following institutional footprints.
🔹 Enhance Your Trading Edge – Use SMT divergences in combination with liquidity grabs, order blocks, and fair value gaps to refine your strategy.
🔹 Universal Market Compatibility – Works for Forex, Indices, Crypto, Commodities, and even Stocks, giving you flexibility in different markets.

Color Code OverlayColor Code Overlay Indicator
The Color Code Overlay indicator is designed to provide a dynamic visualization of price action using color-coded candles. This overlay highlights trend reversals and bullish/bearish conditions by utilizing a custom candle calculation and the Average True Range (ATR) percentage threshold to detect significant price changes.
Key Features:
Custom Candle Calculation:
The Color Code Overlay is based on a modified candlestick calculation that takes the average of the open, high, low, and close prices to determine the candle’s close value. The open value is derived from the midpoint of the current candle's open and close or the previous Color Code Overlay close. The high and low values are based on the highest and lowest prices between the open, close, and the actual market high/low.
Color-Coding:
Green: The candle is colored green when the close is higher than the open, indicating a bullish trend.
Red: The candle is colored red when the close is lower than the open, indicating a bearish trend.
Color Change Detection:
The indicator detects significant color changes, signaling trend reversals. The transitions are determined based on the following conditions:
A bullish to bearish change (green to red) is identified when the current candle's close is lower than the open, and the price difference exceeds 1% of the candle's range (calculated using the current candle's high and low).
A bearish to bullish change (red to green) occurs when the current candle’s close is higher than the open, and the price difference also exceeds 1% of the candle's range.
Threshold Calculation:
The dynamic threshold for detecting significant price changes is based on the ATR percentage of the candle's range. By default, the indicator uses 1% of the range for detecting meaningful price movement. This ensures that only substantial changes trigger the color shifts, providing clear signals for potential trend reversals or market momentum.
Arrows for Color Changes:
A red triangle down is plotted above the bar when the color changes from green to red (bullish to bearish).
A green triangle up is plotted below the bar when the color changes from red to green (bearish to bullish).
Alerts:
The indicator includes alert conditions that notify you when:
The price is bullish (green candle).
The price is bearish (red candle).
There is a change from green to red (bullish to bearish).
There is a change from red to green (bearish to bullish).
How It Works:
The Color Code Overlay dynamically calculates the candle values based on market data and applies the ATR-based threshold to identify color changes. A shift from bullish to bearish or vice versa is only triggered when the price moves significantly beyond the calculated threshold, helping to avoid false signals from minor price fluctuations.
This indicator is particularly useful for traders looking to spot trend reversals and significant market shifts with a clear, color-coded visual representation of price action. The Color Code Overlay can be used alongside other technical indicators to enhance decision-making and improve trading strategies.
[GYTS-CE] Market Regime Detector🧊 Market Regime Detector (Community Edition)
🌸 Part of GoemonYae Trading System (GYTS) 🌸
🌸 --------- INTRODUCTION --------- 🌸
💮 What is the Market Regime Detector?
The Market Regime Detector is an advanced, consensus-based indicator that identifies the current market state to increase the probability of profitable trades. By distinguishing between trending (bullish or bearish) and cyclic (range-bound) market conditions, this detector helps you select appropriate tactics for different environments. Instead of forcing a single strategy across all market conditions, our detector allows you to adapt your approach based on real-time market behaviour.
💮 The Importance of Market Regimes
Markets constantly shift between different behavioural states or "regimes":
• Bullish trending markets - characterised by sustained upward price movement
• Bearish trending markets - characterised by sustained downward price movement
• Cyclic markets - characterised by range-bound, oscillating behaviour
Each regime requires fundamentally different trading approaches. Trend-following strategies excel in trending markets but fail in cyclic ones, while mean-reversion strategies shine in cyclic markets but underperform in trending conditions. Detecting these regimes is essential for successful trading, which is why we've developed the Market Regime Detector to accurately identify market states using complementary detection methods.
🌸 --------- KEY FEATURES --------- 🌸
💮 Consensus-Based Detection
Rather than relying on a single method, our detector employs two complementary detection methodologies that analyse different aspects of market behaviour:
• Dominant Cycle Average (DCA) - analyzes price movement relative to its lookback period, a proxy for the dominant cycle
• Volatility Channel - examines price behaviour within adaptive volatility bands
These diverse perspectives are synthesised into a robust consensus that minimises false signals while maintaining responsiveness to genuine regime changes.
💮 Dominant Cycle Framework
The Market Regime Detector uses the concept of dominant cycles to establish a reference framework. You can input the dominant cycle period that best represents the natural rhythm of your market, providing a stable foundation for regime detection across different timeframes.
💮 Intuitive Parameter System
We've distilled complex technical parameters into intuitive controls that traders can easily understand:
• Adaptability - how quickly the detector responds to changing market conditions
• Sensitivity - how readily the detector identifies transitions between regimes
• Consensus requirement - how much agreement is needed among detection methods
This approach makes the detector accessible to traders of all experience levels while preserving the power of the underlying algorithms.
💮 Visual Market Feedback
The detector provides clear visual feedback about the current market regime through:
• Colour-coded chart backgrounds (purple shades for bullish, pink for bearish, yellow for cyclic)
• Colour-coded price bars
• Strength indicators showing the degree of consensus
• Customizable colour schemes to match your preferences or trading system
💮 Integration in the GYTS suite
The Market Regime Detector is compatible with the GYTS Suite , i.e. it passes the regime into the 🎼 Order Orchestrator where you can set how to trade the trending and cyclic regime.
🌸 --------- CONFIGURATION SETTINGS --------- 🌸
💮 Adaptability
Controls how quickly the Market Regime detector adapts to changing market conditions. You can see it as a low-frequency, long-term change parameter:
Very Low: Very slow adaptation, most stable but may miss regime changes
Low: Slower adaptation, more stability but less responsiveness
Normal: Balanced between stability and responsiveness
High: Faster adaptation, more responsive but less stable
Very High: Very fast adaptation, highly responsive but may generate false signals
This setting affects lookback periods and filter parameters across all detection methods.
💮 Sensitivity
Controls how sensitive the detector is to market regime transitions. This acts as a high-frequency, short-term change parameter:
Very Low: Requires substantial evidence to identify a regime change
Low: Less sensitive, reduces false signals but may miss some transitions
Normal: Balanced sensitivity suitable for most markets
High: More sensitive, detects subtle regime changes but may have more noise
Very High: Very sensitive, detects minor fluctuations but may produce frequent changes
This setting affects thresholds for regime detection across all methods.
💮 Dominant Cycle Period
This parameter allows you to specify the market's natural rhythm in bars. This represents a complete market cycle (up and down movement). Finding the right value for your specific market and timeframe might require some experimentation, but it's a crucial parameter that helps the detector accurately identify regime changes. Most of the times the cycle is between 20 and 40 bars.
💮 Consensus Mode
Determines how the signals from both detection methods are combined to produce the final market regime:
• Any Method (OR) : Signals bullish/bearish if either method detects that regime. If methods conflict (one bullish, one bearish), the stronger signal wins. More sensitive, catches more regime changes but may produce more false signals.
• All Methods (AND) : Signals only when both methods agree on the regime. More conservative, reduces false signals but might miss some legitimate regime changes.
• Weighted Decision : Balances both methods with equal weighting. Provides a middle ground between sensitivity and stability.
Each mode also calculates a continuous regime strength value that's used for colour intensity in the 'unconstrained' display mode.
💮 Display Mode
Choose how to display the market regime colours:
• Unconstrained regime: Shows the regime strength as a continuous gradient. This provides more nuanced visualisation where the intensity of the colour indicates the strength of the trend.
• Consensus only: Shows only the final consensus regime with fixed colours based on the detected regime type.
The background and bar colours will change to indicate the current market regime:
• Purple shades: Bullish trending market (darker purple indicates stronger bullish trend)
• Pink shades: Bearish trending market (darker pink indicates stronger bearish trend)
• Yellow: Cyclic (range-bound) market
💮 Custom Colour Options
The Market Regime Detector allows you to customize the colour scheme to match your personal preferences or to coordinate with other indicators:
• Use custom colours: Toggle to enable your own colour choices instead of the default scheme
• Transparency: Adjust the transparency level of all regime colours
• Bullish colours: Define custom colours for strong, medium, weak, and very weak bullish trends
• Bearish colours: Define custom colours for strong, medium, weak, and very weak bearish trends
• Cyclic colour: Define a custom colour for cyclic (range-bound) market conditions
🌸 --------- DETECTION METHODS --------- 🌸
💮 Dominant Cycle Average (DCA)
The Dominant Cycle Average method forms a key part of our detection system:
1. Theoretical Foundation :
The DCA method builds on cycle analysis and the observation that in trending markets, price consistently remains on one side of a moving average calculated using the dominant cycle period. In contrast, during cyclic markets, price oscillates around this average.
2. Calculation Process :
• We calculate a Simple Moving Average (SMA) using the specified lookback period - a proxy for the dominant cycle period
• We then analyse the proportion of time that price spends above or below this SMA over a lookback window. The theory is that the price should cross the SMA each half cycle, assuming that the dominant cycle period is correct and price follows a sinusoid.
• This lookback window is adaptive, scaling with the dominant cycle period (controlled by the Adaptability setting)
• The different values are standardised and normalised to possess more resolving power and to be more robust to noise.
3. Regime Classification :
• When the normalised proportion exceeds a positive threshold (determined by Sensitivity setting), the market is classified as bullish trending
• When it falls below a negative threshold, the market is classified as bearish trending
• When the proportion remains between these thresholds, the market is classified as cyclic
💮 Volatility Channel
The Volatility Channel method complements the DCA method by focusing on price movement relative to adaptive volatility bands:
1. Theoretical Foundation :
This method is based on the observation that trending markets tend to sustain movement outside of normal volatility ranges, while cyclic markets tend to remain contained within these ranges. By creating adaptive bands that adjust to current market volatility, we can detect when price behaviour indicates a trending or cyclic regime.
2. Calculation Process :
• We first calculate a smooth base channel center using a low pass filter, creating a noise-reduced centreline for price
• True Range (TR) is used to measure market volatility, which is then smoothed and scaled by the deviation factor (controlled by Sensitivity)
• Upper and lower bands are created by adding and subtracting this scaled volatility from the centreline
• Price is smoothed using an adaptive A2RMA filter, which has a very flat and stable behaviour, to reduce noise while preserving trend characteristics
• The position of this smoothed price relative to the bands is continuously monitored
3. Regime Classification :
• When smoothed price moves above the upper band, the market is classified as bullish trending
• When smoothed price moves below the lower band, the market is classified as bearish trending
• When price remains between the bands, the market is classified as cyclic
• The magnitude of price's excursion beyond the bands is used to determine trend strength
4. Adaptive Behaviour :
• The smoothing periods and deviation calculations automatically adjust based on the Adaptability setting
• The measured volatility is calculated over a period proportional to the dominant cycle, ensuring the detector works across different timeframes
• Both the center line and the bands adapt dynamically to changing market conditions, making the detector responsive yet stable
This method provides a unique perspective that complements the DCA approach, with the consensus mechanism synthesising insights from both methods.
🌸 --------- USAGE GUIDE --------- 🌸
💮 Starting with Default Settings
The default settings (Normal for Adaptability and Sensitivity, Weighted Decision for Consensus Mode) provide a balanced starting point suitable for most markets and timeframes. Begin by observing how these settings identify regimes in your preferred instruments.
💮 Finding the Optimal Dominant Cycle
The dominant cycle period is a critical parameter. Here are some approaches to finding an appropriate value:
• Start with typical values, usually something around 25 works well
• Visually identify the average distance between significant peaks and troughs
• Experiment with different values and observe which provides the most stable regime identification
• Consider using cycle-finding indicators to help identify the natural rhythm of your market
💮 Adjusting Parameters
• If you notice too many regime changes → Decrease Sensitivity or increase Consensus requirement
• If regime changes seem delayed → Increase Adaptability
• If a trending regime is not detected, the market is automatically assigned to be in a cyclic state
• If you want to see more nuanced regime transitions → Try the "unconstrained" display mode (note that this will not affect the output to other indicators)
💮 Trading Applications
Regime-Specific Strategies:
• Bullish Trending Regime - Use trend-following strategies, trail stops wider, focus on breakouts, consider holding positions longer, and emphasize buying dips
• Bearish Trending Regime - Consider shorts, tighter stops, focus on breakdown points, sell rallies, implement downside protection, and reduce position sizes
• Cyclic Regime - Apply mean-reversion strategies, trade range boundaries, apply oscillators, target definable support/resistance levels, and use profit-taking at extremes
Strategy Switching:
Create a set of rules for each market regime and switch between them based on the detector's signal. This approach can significantly improve performance compared to applying a single strategy across all market conditions.
GYTS Suite Integration:
• In the GYTS 🎼 Order Orchestrator, select the '🔗 STREAM-int 🧊 Market Regime' as the market regime source
• Note that the consensus output (i.e. not the "unconstrained" display) will be used in this stream
• Create different strategies for trending (bullish/bearish) and cyclic regimes. The GYTS 🎼 Order Orchestrator is specifically made for this.
• The output stream is actually very simple, and can possibly be used in indicators and strategies as well. It outputs 1 for bullish, -1 for bearish and 0 for cyclic regime.
🌸 --------- FINAL NOTES --------- 🌸

BTC: Open InterestThis indicator tracks the 7-day (default) percentage change in open interest (OI), providing insights into market participation trends. It includes customizable periods and colors, allowing traders to adjust settings for better visualization.
Open interest (OI) is the total number of active contracts (futures or options) that haven’t been closed or settled. It represents the total open positions in the market.
Thus when OI increases, more traders are entering new positions, signaling growing market interest. Conversely, when OI decreases, positions are being closed, suggesting lower trader participation or liquidation.
Attributes & Features:
Open Interest Percentage Change – Measures the 7-day % change in open interest to track market participation.
Customizable Calculation Period – Users can adjust the period (default: 7 days) for more flexible analysis.
Adjustable Colors – Allows modification of colors for better visualization.
Trend Identification – Highlights rising vs. falling open interest trends.
Works Across Assets – Can be used for cryptos, stocks, and futures with open interest data.
Overlay or Separate Panel – Can be plotted on price chart or as a separate indicator.
How It Works:
Fetches Open Interest Data – Retrieves open interest values for each day for USD, USDT, and USDC Bitcoin Perpetual Derivitives.
Calculates Percentage Change – Compares current open interest to its value X days ago (Default = 7 days).
Standard Deviation – Applies standard deviation ranging from -2 to +2 deviations to identify large shifts in OI.
Visual Alerts – Can highlight extreme increases or decreases signaling potential market shifts.
NOTE: THE INDICATOR DATA ONLY GOES BACK TO START OF 2022
VWAP Balance Zones - SessionsVWAP Balance Zones Sessions Version is an alternate take on the Original VWAP Balance Zones indicator. The Sessions version allows users to select a specific session to view the VWAP Balance Zones at while still utilizing the full ETH Data.
The Session version provides a better focused display while still maintaining the core functions of the original script with mindful optimizations.
Author's Note: "VBZ Sessions was made with logistics in mind, for the users who only trade within certain times of the day. While it displays the same core concepts, it is not as "Raw" of a display as the Original. For this reason, some users may prefer the Original VWAP Balance Zones, which is why I have opted to release this alternate version instead of updating the original."
> What are VWAP Balance Zones?
"VWAP Balance Zones" is an original concept aimed at identifying the equilibrium area between market participants within the current trend by averaging the Daily Extremes and the Daily VWAP.
Refer to the illustration below for a better understanding of exactly how VWAP Balance Zones are formed:
These zones are displayed for the Daily, Weekly, and Monthly VWAPs, with the most interactive timeframe being the Daily.
> Features
1. The Session Version uses ETH data at all times, and does not solely rely on the chart's data to create the VWAPs or Zones.
This allows the user to focus on a specific trading session, while not losing out on the full VBZ Calculation, with the notable benefit of a cleaner display.
The Original VBZ starts drawing at the beginning of the chart's "Day", and would produce different results when using an RTH chart vs an ETH chart. Along with creating a bird's nest of unusable data at the beginning of the day.
2. Session Start and End lines are displayed for easier identification of the designated trading session.
3. The extreme "Close" Lines are no longer displayed to reduce noise and redundancy.
4. Additionally, the interior VWAP lines are no longer displayed. Ultimately, this was to reduce noise and focus the script on the 50% zones.
5. Weekly and Monthly Zones are now displayed due to the reduced noise!
6. As with the original, the weekly display will yield to the daily, and the monthly display will yield to the weekly.
In the screenshot below, you can observe this behavior.
Enjoy!

Previous Day LevelsThis indicator plots the previous day's high, low, and 50% levels, providing a framework for analyzing price behavior relative to these key levels.
Full Description:
The Previous Day Levels indicator is a tool designed to help traders analyze price action based on key levels from the previous trading session. By plotting the high, low, and mid-point (50%) of the prior day’s range, traders can assess potential market bias and directional tendencies for the current trading day.
Key Features:
Plots the previous day’s high (100%), low (0%), and intermediate levels (25%, 50%, 75%).
Allows users to customize line visibility, color, style, and width.
Helps traders identify potential support and resistance zones.
Provides a bias framework for determining whether price is more likely to target the previous high or low based on behavior around the 50% level.
Use Case:
This indicator is particularly useful for intraday and short-term traders who incorporate price action into their strategy.
If price trades above the 50% level and holds, it suggests a bullish bias, indicating that price may aim for the previous day's high.
If price trades below the 50% level and holds, it suggests a bearish bias, indicating that price may aim for the previous day's low.
The high and low levels can act as key support and resistance zones, where price may react or reverse.
How to Use:
Apply the indicator to your chart.
Observe how price interacts with the 50% level.
Use price behavior around these levels to establish a directional bias.
Adjust the line styles and colors to match your personal preference.
Disclaimer:
This indicator is a tool for market analysis and does not provide financial advice. Always perform your own analysis and risk management when trading.

High and Low with Horizontal TableHigh and Low with Horizontal Table Indicator
Overview
The "High and Low with Horizontal Table" indicator is designed for traders who wish to monitor key levels based on specific candle times, along with dynamic risk-to-reward ratios and ATR-based values. This indicator features real-time calculations, visual cues, and a table for quick reference of the calculated values.
Key Features
Custom Time Inputs:
Users can define two specific time inputs to select the candles for the High and Low prices. These times can target the same or separate candles.
ATR-based Calculation:
The indicator allows users to apply an ATR Multiplier to adjust the calculation of key levels. By default, the ATR multiplier is set to 1.2, but users can adjust it to their preferred value (e.g., 1.5 or 2).
Risk-to-Reward (R:R) Calculation:
The Risk-to-Reward Ratio (R:R) is used to calculate potential Take Profit (TP) levels based on the high and low of the selected candle(s).
The default R:R ratio is 2.0, but it can be customized to suit the trader’s strategy.
Visual Markings:
The High and Low values are plotted with subtle markers on the chart (cross style) for easy identification. The display of these markers is subdued for minimal visual distraction.
Horizontal Table Display:
A horizontal table is generated in the top-right corner of the chart, providing a quick reference for the following values:
High and Low of the selected candle(s)
High + ATR Multiplier and Low - ATR Multiplier
R:R ratio
Buy TP and Sell TP levels
Each value is displayed with a reasonable number of decimal places (4 decimals) for major forex pairs, XAUUSD, and BTCUSD.
Input Parameters
Hour and Minute for High Candle: Select the time for the candle that will determine the High.
Hour and Minute for Low Candle: Select the time for the candle that will determine the Low.
ATR Multiplier: A customizable input for adjusting the ATR-based calculations (default is 1.2).
Risk-to-Reward (R:R): Set the ratio to determine the TP levels (default is 2.0).
How It Works
The user defines two distinct time inputs (one for the High and one for the Low).
At the specified times, the indicator captures the High and Low prices of the candles.
The ATR is calculated and adjusted by the user-defined ATR Multiplier to determine buffers above the High and below the Low.
The Risk-to-Reward ratio is applied to calculate the Take Profit levels.
All of these values are displayed on the chart and updated in real time. The horizontal table ensures quick reference to all the key levels without cluttering the main chart.
Use Cases
Trend Trading: Identify potential support and resistance levels based on specific timeframes and adjust TP targets using ATR.
Scalping: Use the ATR and R:R calculations to target precise entry and exit points.
Market Opens: Track key market opens (such as New York and London) with candle times that reflect your trading strategy.
Conclusion
The High and Low with Horizontal Table indicator is a powerful tool for traders looking to combine precise candle-based level tracking with ATR-based risk management. By displaying key levels and TP targets in a clear, tabular format, traders can quickly assess and act on key price levels throughout their trading sessions.
Liquidity Depth [AlgoAlpha]OVERVIEW
This script visualizes market liquidity by identifying key price levels where significant volume has transacted. It highlights zones of high buying and selling interest, helping traders understand where liquidity is accumulating and how price may respond to these areas. By dynamically tracking volume at highs and lows, the script builds a real-time liquidity profile, making it a powerful tool for identifying potential support and resistance levels.
CONCEPTS
Liquidity depth analysis helps traders determine how price interacts with supply and demand at different levels. The script processes historical volume data to distinguish between high-liquidity and low-liquidity zones. It assigns transparency levels to plotted lines , ensuring that more relevant liquidity areas stand out visually. The script adds a profile to show the depth of liquidity (derived from historical volume data) for levels above and below the current price
FEATURES
Liquidity Levels: Tracks liquidity levels based on volume concentration at price high and lows.
Volume-Based Transparency: More significant liquidity levels are displayed with higher visibility, showing their significance.
Interpolation: interpolates the bullish and bearish liquidity depth at a user defined range away from the price, helping in comparing the liquidity amounts between bullish and bearish.
Depth Profile: Allows traders to visualize depth of liquidity in a more quantitative and clearer way than the liquidity levels/list]
USAGE
This indicator is best used to track liquidity levels and potential price reaction areas. Traders can adjust the Liquidity Lookback setting to analyze past liquidity levels over different historical periods. The Profile Resolution setting controls the granularity of liquidity depth visualization, with higher values providing more detail. The script can be applied across different timeframes, from intraday scalping to swing trading analysis. The plotted liquidity zones provide traders with insights into where price may encounter strong support, resistance, or potential liquidity-driven reversals.
Real-Time Price Comparator→ La version française se trouve plus bas ←
Real-Time Price Spread Comparator
This indicator allows you to compare the real-time price difference (spread) between two assets. It is particularly useful for spotting arbitrage opportunities or price discrepancies between different markets.
💡 Why is this useful?
This tool is especially practical for monitoring the gap between CME futures and the spot market. If the spread becomes too large, we can expect the market to rebalance, which can help anticipate potential price movements.
📌 Features:
✅ Compare two assets of your choice (default: BTC CME vs. BTC OANDA).

5️⃣ Si le spread dépasse le seuil, une alerte visuelle apparaîtra !
Normalised Price Crossover - MACD but TickersEver noticed two different tickers are correlated yet have different lags? Ever find one ticker moves first and when the other finally goes to catch up, the first one has already reversed?
So I thought to myself, would be wicked if I took the faster one and made it into a 'Signal Line' and the slow one and made it into a 'Slow Line' almost like a MACD if you will.
So that's what I did, I took the price charts of the tickers and I normalised the price data so they could actually cross, plotted it and sat back to see it generate signals, lo and behold!
Pretty neat, though I'd advise to use spreads and such for the different tickers to really feel the power of the indicator, works well when you use formulas that model actual mechanisms instead of arbitrary price data of different assets as correlation =/= causation.
Enjoy.

TILT - Timed Index of Liquidity TrendsThe Timed Index of Liquidity Trends (TILT) is a tracking tool for high-market cap, high-volatility assets like Bitcoin (BTCUSD), the S&P 500 (SPY), the Nasdaq 100 (QQQ), and Gold. Liquidity drives markets; understanding when liquidity is expanding or contracting can help traders anticipate major market swings with greater confidence.
TILT’s M2 Calculation
TILT is based on a global M2 money supply proxy, which aggregates liquidity conditions from major economies. Since TradingView does not provide direct M2 data for all regions, the indicator uses market-based proxies instead:
🇺🇸 United States – S&P 500 Index (SPX)
🇨🇦 Canada – TSX Composite Index (TSX)
🇪🇺 Eurozone – EUR/USD Exchange Rate (EURUSD)
🇬🇧 United Kingdom – GBP/USD Exchange Rate (GBPUSD)
🇷🇺 Russia – Moscow Exchange Index (MOEX)
🇨🇳 China – China 50 Index (CN50USD)
🇯🇵 Japan – Nikkei 225 Index (JPN225)
🇦🇺 Australia – Gold (XAUUSD) as a liquidity proxy
🇮🇳 India – Nifty 50 Index (NIFTY)
🇰🇷 South Korea – KOSPI Index (KOSPI)
🇧🇷 Brazil – Bovespa Index (IBOV)
🇿🇦 South Africa – USD/ZAR Exchange Rate (USDZAR)
By summing these liquidity proxies, TILT provides a comprehensive view of global M2 conditions, allowing traders to see when money supply is expanding (bullish liquidity conditions) or contracting (bearish liquidity conditions).
How to Use TILT for Trading High-Volatility Assets
TILT is not a traditional price indicator. It is a macro tool designed to show whether liquidity is flowing into or out of the financial system. Assets like Bitcoin, QQQ, and Gold tend to perform well when liquidity is expanding and decline when liquidity is contracting.
₿ Bitcoin (BTCUSD) – The Ultimate Liquidity Sponge
Bitcoin thrives on excess liquidity because it is still a speculative asset with no central authority.
· Liquidity Expanding → BTC tends to rise, as speculative capital flows in.
· Liquidity Contracting → BTC struggles or enters a bear market as leverage dries up.
Example Use Case: If TILT turns green (expanding liquidity) and BTC is near a technical support zone, it may indicate a buying opportunity before the next rally.
📊 S&P 500 (SPY) & Nasdaq 100 (QQQ) – Growth & Risk Appetite
These indices are heavily influenced by liquidity conditions because they represent growth stocks and corporate credit access.
· SPY (🇺🇸) → Moves based on global liquidity, particularly Fed policy & M2 expansion.
· QQQ (🇺🇸) → Even more sensitive than SPY due to high exposure to tech stocks.
Example Use Case: If TILT shows liquidity expansion, QQQ often leads SPY higher, providing early signals for market-wide risk-on behavior.
🥇 Gold – Liquidity & Inflation Hedge
Gold is a monetary asset, meaning it benefits from liquidity expansion and inflation fears.
· Liquidity Expanding → Gold can rally as real yields decline.
· Liquidity Contracting → Gold struggles, especially if real yields rise.
Example Use Case: If TILT turns red (liquidity contracting) and bond yields are rising, gold could enter a bearish phase.
⏱️ Timing Market Swings with the Offset Function
The offset function in TILT allows traders to shift liquidity data forward or backward in time to find the best correlation with price action. However, the offset is not fixed and should be re-evaluated periodically to ensure it remains optimized as a leading indicator. Liquidity cycles and market conditions change over time, meaning an offset that worked well in one period may need adjustment in another.
🤔 Why Use an Offset?
Liquidity moves markets with a lag – The effect of M2 expansion/contraction takes time to show up in risk assets.
Finding the right lag helps confirm liquidity-driven price moves – This is crucial for Bitcoin, QQQ, and Gold, which react differently to liquidity shifts.
Since liquidity conditions evolve, the offset should be adjusted from time to time to maintain predictive accuracy.
👋 How to Fit the Offset Using Vertical Reference Lines
The best way to optimize the offset is by testing historical liquidity cycles and using vertical reference lines (and/or the Date Range tool) to align liquidity trends with major price swings.
Step 1: Plot TILT and the asset you’re analyzing (e.g., BTCUSD) on the same chart.
Step 2: Add vertical lines on significant price reversals (major tops & bottoms).
Step 3: Adjust TILT’s offset forward or backward to see if liquidity trends lead or lag those reversals.
Step 4: Periodically revisit the offset setting to ensure it still aligns well with current market conditions.
Example: If BTC topped 10 bars after TILT turned red, you might set the offset to +10 to better align liquidity changes with price action. If, over time, BTC begins reacting faster or slower to liquidity shifts, the offset should be updated accordingly.
💡 Advanced Tips for TILT Users
· Combine TILT With Sentiment Indicators Like the Fear & Greed Index
· Low Fear & Expanding Liquidity → Strong buy signal for BTC & risk assets
· High Greed & Contracting Liquidity → Caution: Market topping signal
· Use With Volume & On-Chain Metrics for BTC
· Rising TILT + Increasing BTC Volume → Confirms strong accumulation
· TILT Falling + Weak BTC Volume → Potential distribution & market risk
· Watch for Divergences
If BTC makes a new high but TILT is falling, it could indicate a liquidity-driven market top.
If BTC makes a new low but TILT is rising, it could indicate a bottom forming.
Conclusion: TILT = The Macro Liquidity Key for Volatile Assets
TILT is an effective tool for timing market swings in Bitcoin, QQQ, SPY, and Gold, as these assets are highly sensitive to liquidity cycles.
· Tracks global M2 trends using liquidity proxies from major economies
· Helps confirm major tops & bottoms in risk assets
· Offset function allows precise timing of liquidity-driven market moves
· Offset should be reviewed periodically to maintain optimal accuracy
· Pairs well with sentiment tools like the Fear & Greed Index for crypto
By using TILT correctly, traders can anticipate major market turns and position ahead of liquidity-driven moves.
VWAP & Volume Correlation### **Calculating the Correlation Between VWAP (Volume-Weighted Average Price) and Volume (VOLUME) Over a Period of Time**
#### **Breakdown & Understanding**
- **VWAP (Volume-Weighted Average Price)**: Similar to an average price but weighted by volume, representing the average price at which market participants traded during a specific period.
- **VOLUME (Trading Volume)**: The total amount of assets traded over a certain period.
- **CORR (Correlation)**: Measures the relationship between two variables, ranging from **-1 to 1**:
- **Close to 1**: VWAP and volume **move in sync**—when volume increases, VWAP also rises, and when volume decreases, VWAP also falls.
- **Close to -1**: VWAP and volume **move inversely**—when volume increases, VWAP decreases, and vice versa.
- **Close to 0**: No significant relationship between VWAP and volume.
#### **Examples**
- If the correlation is **high (close to 1)**, it indicates that an increase in trading volume leads to a higher VWAP, suggesting that large amounts of capital are being traded at higher prices, which could indicate a **strong market**.
- If the correlation is **low (close to 0)**, it suggests that there is **no stable relationship** between VWAP and volume.
- If the correlation is **close to -1**, it means that **higher trading volume leads to a lower VWAP**, possibly indicating that heavy selling pressure is pushing prices down.
#### **Practical Applications**
- **Identifying Market Trends**: If VWAP and volume have a strong correlation, it could indicate that the current trend is stable.
- **Detecting Anomalies**: If the correlation suddenly drops or turns negative, it may signal a shift in market behavior, such as **large-scale selling or sudden price surges**.
#### **How to Use This Indicator**
- **When the correlation is close to 1 (Blue)**:
- VWAP and volume are moving **in sync**, suggesting a stable market trend.
- **When the correlation is close to -1 (Red)**:
- **Higher volume is causing VWAP to drop**, which could indicate institutional distribution or unusual market movements.
- **When the correlation fluctuates significantly**:
- It suggests **market sentiment is changing**, and it may be worth watching for a potential trend reversal.
By monitoring VWAP and volume correlation, traders can **better understand market conditions, detect institutional activity, and refine their trading strategies**. 🚀
MTF Sentiment ProMTF Sentiment Pro - Advanced Multi-Timeframe Analysis
Purpose & Methodology
MTF Sentiment Pro provides traders with comprehensive market sentiment analysis across multiple timeframes. This indicator's unique innovation is its weighted scoring system that evaluates both technical indicators and volume metrics to determine market sentiment across customizable timeframes.
Unlike simple indicator overlays or basic multi-timeframe tools, this indicator:
1. Calculates sentiment using a proprietary weighted formula across 7 different timeframes
2. Incorporates volume confirmation to validate price movements (a critical element often overlooked)
3. Provides clear visualization of sentiment alignment between lower and higher timeframes
4. Uses majority-rule algorithms for overall sentiment determination (2/3 rule for LTF, 3/4 rule for HTF)
Technical Components & Integration
Each timeframe's sentiment score is derived from a combination of:
- **EMA**: Evaluates trend direction and price position relative to moving average
- **RSI**: Measures momentum with sensitivity to the 50-level for trend determination
- **MACD**: Assesses trend strength and momentum through histogram analysis
- **Bollinger Bands**: Determines price volatility and position relative to the mean
- **VWAP**: Provides volume-adjusted price reference
- **OBV**: Confirms price moves with cumulative volume analysis
What makes this combination powerful is how these components are integrated:
- Each indicator contributes a weighted value to the overall sentiment score
- User-definable weights allow customization based on strategy preferences
- Volume confirmation adds a critical dimension beyond basic price-only indicators
- Multi-timeframe analysis helps identify alignment/divergence across time horizons
Trading Applications & Limitations
This indicator works best for:
- Trend confirmation across multiple timeframes
- Identifying potential reversal zones where LTF and HTF sentiments diverge
- Entry/exit timing when paired with your primary strategy rules
- Market structure analysis across different time horizons
Note: While this indicator provides comprehensive sentiment analysis, it should be used as part of a complete trading strategy with proper risk management. No indicator can predict market movements with certainty.
Usage Instructions
1. Select appropriate timeframes for your trading style or use one of the included presets
2. Adjust indicator weights to match your analytical preferences
3. Look for timeframe alignment/divergence to identify potential opportunities
4. Use the overall LTF and HTF sentiment readings for broader market context
This indicator was developed to solve the challenge of efficiently analyzing sentiment across multiple timeframes while incorporating volume confirmation - something that would otherwise require multiple indicators and manual correlation.
[TehThomas] - ICT VI / FVG / IFVG / Liquidity📌 Overview
This TradingView indicator is designed to help traders spot key price inefficiencies and liquidity events based on ICT (Inner Circle Trader) concepts. The script automatically highlights important areas on the chart, such as Volume Imbalances (VI), Fair Value Gaps (FVG), Inverted Fair Value Gaps (IFVG), and Liquidity Sweeps, giving traders a clear view of where price might react.
By marking these zones visually, the indicator serves as a liquidity map, showing where smart money could be targeting orders or rebalancing price action.
🔑 How the Script Works
The indicator detects four major market inefficiencies and liquidity patterns, each offering valuable insights into how price might behave:
1️⃣ Volume Imbalance (VI)
Bullish VI: When the current candle has higher volume than the previous candle in an upward move, this suggests demand is pushing the price up, creating potential buying opportunities.
Bearish VI: When the current candle has higher volume than the previous candle in a downward move, this suggests supply is pushing the price down, highlighting potential selling opportunities.
How to take trades:
Buy: Enter a long position when a bullish VI appears and the price is near a support zone or key level (such as the previous swing low or FVG).
Sell: Enter a short position when a bearish VI appears and the price is near a resistance zone or key level (such as the previous swing high or FVG).
2️⃣ Fair Value Gap (FVG)
Bullish FVG: A gap in price action where the low of the second candle is higher than the high of the first candle. Price tends to return to fill these gaps before continuing upward.
Bearish FVG: A gap in price action where the high of the second candle is lower than the low of the first candle. Price tends to return to fill these gaps before continuing downward.
How to take trades:
Buy: Enter long after a pullback into a bullish FVG zone and if price action shows signs of rejection (such as bullish candlestick patterns or strong momentum).
Sell: Enter short after a pullback into a bearish FVG zone and if price action shows signs of rejection (such as bearish candlestick patterns or strong downward momentum).
3️⃣ Inverted Fair Value Gap (IFVG)
An Inverted Fair Value Gap (IFVG) refers to a Fair Value Gap (FVG) that has already been filled or broken through by price action. Essentially, it is a gap that has been revisited by price and has now been mitigated or broken.
Example:
For Continuation: After price fills the gap, it may continue in the same direction. If price breaks through a bullish FVG and shows continuation, it may signal that the market is still in a strong uptrend.
For Reversal: If the price returns to an inverted FVG after breaching it, and then starts showing signs of reversal (e.g., reversal candlestick patterns, or a shift in momentum), this could signal an entry point in the opposite direction.
How to take trades:
Buy: Consider entering long when price returns to an IFVG zone that aligns with other bullish confluences, such as a bullish VI or liquidity sweep.
Sell: Consider entering short when price returns to a bearish IFVG zone that aligns with other bearish confluences, such as a bearish VI or liquidity sweep.
4️⃣ Liquidity Sweeps
Liquidity sweeps occur when the market temporarily breaks a key high or low to trigger stop-loss orders or lure traders into the wrong direction before reversing.
How to take trades:
Buy: If a liquidity sweep breaks a key resistance or swing high but fails to close above it, enter long when price begins to reverse in the opposite direction, ideally near a previous support or FVG zone.
Sell: If a liquidity sweep breaks a key support or swing low but fails to close below it, enter short when price begins to reverse in the opposite direction, ideally near a previous resistance or FVG zone.
🎯 Trade Setup and Confirmation Strategy
Here’s how to combine these concepts for high-probability trade setups:
Liquidity Sweeps + Volume Imbalances:
If a liquidity sweep occurs in conjunction with a volume imbalance (especially on a higher timeframe), this can act as a confirmation signal to enter the trade.
Example: A liquidity sweep breaks a previous high, but the price fails to close above it. If this happens alongside a break of a Volume imbalance (VI) , it could be a strong signal to sell.
FVG/IFVG Mitigation + Liquidity Sweeps:
Price often returns to mitigate imbalances, and when a liquidity sweep occurs near an unfilled gap, it could trigger a reversal.
Example: After an upward trend, a bearish liquidity sweep breaks a previous swing low, and price then revisits a bearish FVG and creates an IFVG, signaling an opportunity to buy.
Directional Bias (Higher Timeframe Analysis):
Always consider the higher timeframe trend to confirm trade direction. A bullish FVG or bullish VI on the lower timeframe aligns with a bullish trend on the higher timeframe.
Confluence with Key Levels:
When these patterns align with important price levels such as support, resistance, or previously identified swing highs/lows, it enhances the probability of a successful trade.
⚙️ How It Helps in Trading Strategy
The indicator assists in several aspects of trading:
Liquidity Hunts: Price often sweeps liquidity before making major moves.
Entry Confirmation: Use imbalances or sweeps as extra confluence for trade entries.
Mitigation Zones: Price frequently returns to fill inefficiencies before reversing.
Directional Bias: Bullish or bearish gaps align with the higher timeframe narrative.
🔍 ICT Concepts Included
✅Volume Imbalance (VI): High-volume inefficiencies.
✅Fair Value Gap (FVG): Standard price gaps.
✅Inverted Fair Value Gap (IFVG): Filtered large price gaps.
✅Liquidity Sweeps: Stop-hunting patterns by smart money.
